So lately I have been playing with my food. A lot. Drying things, preserving them, inventing marinades that will prolong shelf life, all sorts of things. As an ex-chef, it's ironic that I am learning more about food now that ever before. God gave me this weird gift; to be able to mix and pre-taste flavors in my head without actually doing it. So, when I think of 3 flavors, I can taste in my mouth how it will taste. It's weird, but very useful.

Lately I have been experimenting with a pressure cooker. Never used one before. It's a fairly bland way to cook, so I am working on making amazing tasting food from one. They use very little energy, and it's a very clean way to cook. Winter is fast approaching, not thanks to Global Warming. Pfff... And winter means thick heavy hot meals. My soups, again, made from scratch, are killer.

Yes, I am different to most guys :) After 15 years in high technology, I am discovering the finer things in life. I am on a mission to radically simplify my life. I still have my travel bug, and there's so many places I want to go, but funding such travel becomes a problem. Simplifying my life saves money, and enables me to travel more. It also enables me to actually SEE the world. If that makes sense? I mean, when there's so much on your radar, it's hard to see the really important things in life. That's why I am getting more and more involved in politics. Because there's this group of people that want to control our lives, and if let them, they will. And my younger friends could not care less about politics, and think I need to just get on about Kingdom work. But that's thing thing. I am. Politics is really important, because it touches everybody.
